TBR jar sounds fun. I had one for a while but I didn't always want to read the books I got. I didn't realize I stopped using it until time passed and one day I found it shoved back on a shelf. I see a lot of cute games people make up to use. I have several nice reads in Little free libraries. It is a good way to pass books along. You did a nice job. I look forward to see the next books you read.
It’s so much fun but overwhelming at the same time 😂And Yes! I love LFL’s. I have a few in my neighborhood that I put books in from time to time. Thanks for watching, it means a lot🩷
I love your sweater! I totally agree with you about reading and watching things based in slavery times…gotta be in the right headspace for that for sure. I’m so glad you love Legendborn! I’m a fantasy girlie and had kind of a hard time with it myself lol, it’s definitely not a good book for beginners and the second one even more so I don’t blame you for DNFing. Really love the vibes of this video and hearing your thoughts!
Thank you 🩷🤗 Yes, I enjoyed the first one because it was so different from my usual reads but my brain was all over the place LOL. I really wanted to love the second one😩 Thanks for watching!🫶🏾
Hey girl heyyy! Legendborn was my first fantasy and I loved both in the series so far (already preordered book 3) lol It makes me sad when others don’t love it as much as I did; it was a lot to understand but I listened to it on audio and the narrator did a great job 😆 Freida is really pushing these out books, I plan to read The Boyfriend this month. 🤞🏾
Can’t wait to hear your thoughts on Hello Beautiful! I have the same sweatshirt in a wine color! I feel like Fourth Wing was an easy fantasy to follow (but I’ve read quite a few fantasy books before). My November TBR is non existent at the moment (way too many choices 😂) This may be a month I just let my mood guide me through my TBR 😂
I HAVE to get to Fourth Wing before this year is up. I bought it last year!!😩 I hear that one is super easy to get through so wish me luck. So far so good on Hello Beautiful… I have some thoughts so far but we shall see🤗
I know! I can’t believe it. Hopefully November will be just as good because I did do the TBR jar😬 So stay tuned LOL And yes, I think you’ll love Yellow Wife🩷
Hey hey! I have had Yellow Wife on my Kindle TBR for YEARS. I’m going to pick it up soon. You just influenced me. 😂I’m like you though. I have to get my mind right bc whew! Legendborn as your first fantasy is a tough one. There was a lot to keep up with! I’ve put book 2 on Nov TBR. Hopefully, I don’t suffer the same fate. I’ll keep you posted. 😂
Hey giiiiiirl!! Yessssss please read Yellow Wife. I didn’t think I’d like it as much as I did, but it definitely was tough😩. Yeah, keep me posted on Bloodmarked LOL
I felt the same way about Somebody's Wife. Also I want to read Yellow Wife. I've never read historical fiction but I've started buying them and I've heard all great things about Yellow Wife.
I wanted to love Davenport, it started off great and then it started dragging. Just when I thought it was going to wrap things up it went into cliffhanger mode. I am undecided if I will read the second book as I feel like I am over it. I loved Yellow Wife but like you I have to be in the right mood for it because reading about slavery times is hard. I went into it completely blind too and glad that I did. I loved Legendborn, it is a book that you have to fully think about while reading and remember what you have read.
Same! It was an okay read (Davenports), but I didn’t love it enough to read the second one. I loved Legendborn but I didn’t get the same feeling in Bloodmarked, it was dragging a bit much for me and I felt a slump coming on and we can’t have that LOL
I think you like that one🫶🏾 And girl…. GOT? All I know are the Lancaster’s and that evil incest lady😂😂 My husband had me watching it and I didn’t have a clue what was going on LOL
Thank yooooou🫶🏾🩷 Yep, they’re on KU I just have an addiction and feel like I need both copies LOL But her books won’t be for everyone, but I just LOVE the way she writes.
I felt the exact same way about Legendborn and Bloodmarked. Legendborn was my very first fantasy. I did the book and audiobook simultaneously to help my confusion 😂. Although i was confused a lot, the book was actually really good. It had me thinking that I may actually low key be a fantasy girlie (the delusion 😂). I was so excited to get into Boodmarked and I was so disappointed. It almost felt like a totally different author from the 1st book.
Right?!? When I was about 50% into it I was delusional too😂😂 I couldn’t make that my primary genre but I’m definitely going to dabble in it. Bloodmarked was just soooo long and going no where fast LOL
Oh my, you DNFed Legendborn😅?! Oh my! And I have it on my TBR😅. I believe I have read more intricate fantasy books, so I may just still pick it up. I have not read any books by Frieda McFadden, and I own two of her books😅. By your review of her latest book, I see that I am not missing anything.
Nooo I DNF’d Bloodmarked. I LOVED Legendborn 🩷 Yeah you’re more of a fantasy reader so you might love the second one. I didn’t hate it per se, it was just much slower than the first one that’s all. No you’re not missing much with Freida, but she’s definitely good for a palate cleanser or for a face paced read.
So glad you enjoyed In My Dreams I Hold A Knife. I liked One of Us Is Dead and all their shenanigans 😂😂😂 but Yellow Wife wasn’t one of my favs. It was just ok to me and I know the majority loved it, don’t y’all come for me in these comments.🤦🏽♀️😂😂 I’ve enjoyed all of Sadequa’s other books though.
@@ronettewinston1706 Yessss those were soooo good😍. That is totally understandable you not liking Yellow Wife the way me and other people did. We aren’t all going to love the same book. They better NOT come for you🤣 All ☮️&🩷 on this channel😜 Thanks for watching 🫶🏾
I love the sweatshirt! 😮

Dropping by to say hi 👋🏾 Ready for the TBR Jar video!
Heeeeyyyy!! 👋🏾

Can’t wait for you to see the ones I picked 🤗🩷
I liked One Of Us Is Dead but that reveal at the end was so unnecessary 🤦🏾♀️ and I want to read the Davenports, it’s on my tbr !
Right?! So unnecessary 🙄
Hey Book Friend! Loved the reviews and added just about all of them to my TBR😂.
@@toidantzler4423 Awwww🥹 That’s so good to hear🫶🏾🩷 Thanks for watching!🤗
In my dreams I hold a knife did have 365 characters 😂😂 it was good tho

Friend!!!!! U had an amazing reading month. I just picked up Yellow Wife and can’t wait to read it😊
I know! I can’t believe it. Hopefully November will be just as good because I did do the TBR jar😬 So stay tuned LOL
And yes, I think you’ll love Yellow Wife🩷
@ can’t wait to see what you are reading this month. I’m doing something different for my TBR hopefuls this month since it’s my bday month🎂♥️
Ayyyyyeee I can’t wait to see what you’re over there cooking😜
My thoughts EXACTLY about Legendborn. 97% confusion lol but I was so invested!
Ha! That one was soooo fun!🩷
The Boyfriend- “She didn’t come wit it” 😂😂 exactly!!
I adored Hello Beautiful! It’s definitely going somewhere and your inclination that something sad is coming is absolutely right. 💕
@@joycewesleyI knew it! I’m not readyyyyyy😩
It’s so much happening right now, I’m about 40% in now so we’ll see🩷
Ha!!🤣🤣 I’m waiting on The Crash by her and if that’s a flop. We’re breaking up LOL
@@BookmarkedByAlia a think a breakup is coming 😅😅

Legendborn as your first fantasy is a tough one. There was a lot to keep up with! I’ve put book 2 on Nov TBR. Hopefully, I don’t suffer the same fate. I’ll keep you posted. 😂
Hey giiiiiirl!! Yessssss please read Yellow Wife. I didn’t think I’d like it as much as I did, but it definitely was tough😩.
Yeah, keep me posted on Bloodmarked LOL
I’m so excited that you stepped into fantasy 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 I was just as confused as you with Legendborn 😂😂😂 I hadn’t touched book 2 yet. I’m afraid.
I know, now I have to read Fourth Wing, it’s been on my shelf since last year🫣
@ I have to get to that one too 😫
I felt the same way about Somebody's Wife. Also I want to read Yellow Wife. I've never read historical fiction but I've started buying them and I've heard all great things about Yellow Wife.
I wasn’t a historical fiction girlie either but I must say I’ve definitely been dabbling and I’m loving it so far🩷

Yep, I’m on my 2nd Jennifer Hartman book.
She’s an autobuy for me at this point! Thanks for watching🩷
Hey Alia, as always loved your wrap up. I want to get into Jennifer Hartman soon, a lot of her books are on kindle unlimited. ❤❤

One of Us is Dead gave Housewives vibes with a twist. I listened to it via audiobook and enjoyed it. Not my fave by her. But enjoyable.
Exactly. Petty housewives LOL🤣
